FAQs About the Roofing Grant Process
How do I apply for a roofing grant?
To apply, visit the official grant website—Strengthen Your Roof or Strengthen Your Coastal Roof—and submit your application during the open application period. Applications are only accepted through the official portals.
What happens after I submit my application?
Once submitted, NCIUA and IBHS will review your application to determine if your home qualifies for a FORTIFIED Roof™. If approved, your grant funds will be reserved while you move forward with construction.
Please note that prices will vary depending on the size of your roof, roofing material, and more.
How do I choose a contractor for the roofing work?
After approval, you’ll receive access to your grant dashboard, where you can request bids from licensed contractors like Fortitude Roofing. We’re experienced in building FORTIFIED Roofs™ and will ensure your roof meets both the standards and your home’s aesthetic.
Who verifies that the roof meets FORTIFIED standards?
Once your new roof is installed, a certified IBHS Evaluator will inspect the work to ensure it complies with all FORTIFIED Roof™ requirements and submit documentation to IBHS on your behalf.
How are the grant funds distributed?
After the roof is verified, NCIUA will release the grant funds directly to you, the policyholder. You can then use these funds to cover your roofing expenses.
